Day 12: Hello! More new ink testing. I didn't shake this one as vigorously as the others so I think the consistency was slightly thin. (But last time I got so many bubbles!) Should have found a stick and stirred it up a tad more. Still a beautiful rich pink color! Love how it pops on black and white paper.
I have a discount link with code JWA in my bio for 10% off at FWP. (Not sponsored. Bought these with my own money.)

It felt like Spring today 💚 we went to the lake to hang out and I was inspired to do a little lettering there. The wind was blowing the paper so much 😅 swipe to see some photos 💚 • Pens: @stabilousa Brush Pens • • • #spring #spring2023 #springtime🌸 #springtimevibes #brushlettering #brushletteringpractice #brushlettered #moderncalligraphy #moderncalligrapher #moderncalligraphypractice #modernlettering #handlettering #handlettered #chrystalizabeth_brushlettering (at Spanaway Lake And Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp88M5ppmga/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I'm so grateful for finally joining art challenges this year. Finally decided to rip off the anxiety/self-doubt bandaid and just go for it. I absolutely love them now, and always look forward to sketching out ideas for the next one! This is my submission for one of many cute art challenges this month - #decempurr2023
Been finding myself listening to old Taylor Swift songs while I've been drawing lately and really appreciating her word craft and songwriting. Been feeling this one extra hard lately :)

Heute habe ich Nachschub für meinen Kalligraphieshop bestellt. Wusstet ihr, dass ich wahrscheinlich das größte Sortiment obliquer Federhalter in Deutschland führe? Und dass meine Holzfederhalter nachhaltig und regional hergestellt werden? Alle Hölzer kommen von der Schwäbischen Alb, außer der Olive, sie kommt aus Bella Italia. Happy shopping😘 . . . #Holzfederhalter #kalligraphiematerial #obliquepenholder #obliquepenholders #schrägerfederhalter #federhalter #Federhalterliebe #ink #tinte #moderncalligraphy #kalligraphie (hier: Kalligraphie von Schrift und Kunst) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cow7pzwMXCK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Dancing Thyme ink swatching. Coming to the Southern Charm Collection at Ferris Wheel Press on April 5th. A thyme green ink. (Reminds me of their Hampton Harbour Sage ink but without the shimmer.) Also shown is their pendant purse and The Scribe- Lady Didot ballpoint pen. Lots of goodies this month. ☺️

"Stay afraid, but do it anyway. What's important is the action. You don't have to wait to be confident. Just do it and eventually the confidence will follow." - Carrie Fisher This is still one of my favourite quotes ever. It's not much but it's my small contribution to the #SWCelebration this weekend. . . . . #handlettering #modernhandlettering #madewithprocreate #procreate #procreatelettering #calligraphy #moderncalligraphy #ipadlettering #quote #strengthinletters #positivity #createinspirepositivity #remindertoself #digitalhandlettering #motivationalhandlettering #motivationalquotes #procreatehandlettering https://www.instagram.com/p/CeKWlQMhJzy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

For August, I decided to celebrate my love for Stranger Things with a month dedicated to the music! Up first is “I Melt With You” by Modern English. It was released in 1982. It appears in season 1 at Steve’s pool party.
